Church of St Simeon Description
The 17th Century Church of St Simeon in Zadar holds the remains of St Simeon, one of Zadar's four patron saints. They are kept in a sarcophagus designed by Francesco da Milano in the late 14th Century. On the cedar coffin are gold plated reliefs depicting the life of St Simeon and a copy of Capella dell'Arena from Padua, Italy. The casket is said to weigh 250kg. Also in the church is a decorated altar containing the "Virgin and Saints". The fine craftsmanship in these works is worth a visit to the Church of St Simeon.
